Aaron Dixon: My People Are Rising, Mon. 4/15 8-9 pm, Thurs. 1pm, Sat. 1am on SCM
Seattle community activist Aaron Dixon tells a story that is at once personal and communal, local and national, historical and of present-day relevance. Author of My People Are Rising: Memoir of a Black Panther Party, Dixon presents life in the party from the perspective of a foot soldier—a warrior for the cause of revolutionary change and Black Power in America. He presents a visual picture of the courage, commitment, and sometimes shocking brutality of life as a Panther activist. The show includes an introduction by former Panther and current King co. Councilman Larry Gosset.
